Simon and colleagues test how exposure to microwaves affect radish seed germination, either microwaving seeds for ninety seconds or four minutes prior to planting. Surprisingly, the authors found that seeds microwaved for four minutes exhibited 150% increased germination as compared to controls. The authors hypothesize that breakdown of the radish seed coat when exposed to heat may allow seedlings to sprout more efficiently.

Many weight loss supplements contain the stimulant caffeine, but do not disclose the amount. Here, authors measure and compare the amount of caffeine in different dietary supplements. This research gives consumers better understanding of the impact natural supplements may have on their health.

Here the authors evaluate the relationship between state-level abortion policies and maternal mortality across the United States from 2018 to 2021. Their findings reveal that states with restrictive abortion laws consistently experienced higher maternal mortality ratios than those with protective policies, culminating in a 72% increase in deaths within restrictive states by the end of the study period.

The authors looked at the correlation between C reactive protein levels and neurological deficits in patients who had suffered an ischemic stroke.

The authors looked at if there was any correlation between the phase of the moon and admissions for psychiatric concerns.

The authors assess incidence and mortality rates of two cancer types in relation to trihalomethane pollutant concentrations in drinking water.

The authors looked at different factors that influence specific gravity in beverages, including sweetener used, caffeine, carbonation, and sodium.

Lung cancer is highly fatal, largely due to late diagnoses, but early detection can greatly improve survival. This study developed three models to enhance early diagnosis: an MLP for clinical data, a CNN for imaging data, and a hybrid model combining both.

This study investigated how well food labels from 280 different brands across multiple food and drink categories in India and the US adhered to recommended nutritional labeling standards as outlined by the Codex Alimentarius.

Current osteosarcoma (OS) treatments rely on surgery and chemotherapy, but drug resistance remains a major challenge that lowers patient survival rates. Ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death, has shown promise in cancer therapy but is not well understood in OS. This study explores the use of Ferroptosis in OS.
